19:39ScienceDaily.comEvening exercise will not ruin sleep and might even reduce appetite

With growing time demands, many middle-aged adults are finding time
to engage in exercise increasingly difficult. For many, even the
thought of fitting exercise in after a busy day at work can be as
tiring as it is unappetizing. The standing belief that
high-intensity exercise should be avoided in the early evening due
to its effect on sleep only serves to act as another barrier to
exercise at this time.

Bringing the science of high intensity interval training (HIIT)
into everyday life could be the key to helping unfit, overweight
people get more of the exercise they need to improve their health,
according to researchers.

Most reptiles and fish have multiple sets of teeth during their

bone marrow.

A new study shows vigorous exercise and fasting improve the ability

14:36FightAging.OrgCalcification of Arteries is an Independent Cardiovascular Risk, Distinct from Atherosclerosis and Inflammation

The same underlying molecular and cellular damage of aging
contributes to both calcification of blood vessel walls and the
development of atherosclerosis, but researchers here argue that
calcification can be considered on its own, an independent risk
factor for cardiovascular dysfunction and mortality in later life.
The presence of senescent cells is one of the common underlying
factors that accelerates the progression of both atherosclerosis
and calcification of blood vessels. This is due to the inflammatory
signaling produced by these cells. That signaling distorts the
behavior of macrophages trying to clear up deposits of cholesterol
in blood vessel walls, but also makes other cells in the wall
behave as though they are osteoblasts in bone, laying down mineral
deposits. Calcification, like the creation of cross-links […]
